Show Notes

1 E-commerce store, 1 Non-profit and a growing fem-tech brand, Aurora Wellbeing founder & The Cora Project Co-founder, Aurora Marcopoulos sits down with me to get real. 

Aurora touches on her NPO which has worked with 100’s of lives impacted by the reality of period poverty. She sheds light on the dark ‘unseen’ struggle under-resourced communities face and explain how we can help!

She also chats about

  • How she started the Aurora Wellbeing brand. 
  • Her plans to grow the fem-tech space in South Africa. 
  • How a car accident drastically changed the course of her life. 
  • A woman’s cycle and
  • Some of her striking experiences with the focus (or lack thereof) on menstrual wellbeing. 

Aurora shares so much about the journey and shows us that although things aren’t always as glamorous as they seem, it’s so worth it in the end!

So sit back, grab a snack and enjoy!
